Brachytherapy treatment verification study
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study checks if doctors can better verify brachytherapy (a type of internal radiation) during treatment for gynecological or prostate cancer. It may help improve accuracy and outcomes for patients receiving this therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have gynecological cancer (endometrial or cervical) or prostate cancer
- You are scheduled to receive high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy
- You will be treated while lying on a CT scanner couch
- You are mentally able to make your own decisions
- You are not incapacitated or unable to consent

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies whether using CT scans to plan radiation treatment (brachytherapy) is as good as using MRI scans, for cervical cancer. If you join, you may receive standard radiation and chemotherapy, and the imaging method will be chosen randomly.
This study looks back at medical records to understand results after brachytherapy (a form of cancer radiation delivered from inside or close to the tumor) in women with gynecologic cancer. It may help doctors improve future treatment decisions, but you would not have to receive an experimental treatment.
This trial tests a way to measure the exact radiation dose you receive during internal radiotherapy (brachytherapy). It aims to make treatment safer and more effective for prostate or gynecologic cancers.
This study tests image-guided internal radiation (brachytherapy) for certain gynecologic cancers. It may help deliver radiation more precisely by using scans done close to enrollment.
This trial tests a new device that helps doctors deliver brachytherapy more accurately and safely by measuring the radiation dose in real time during treatment. It may lead to better outcomes for prostate or cervical cancer patients.
This trial studies how safe and effective different high-dose radiation levels are for prostate cancer placed directly in the prostate (HDR brachytherapy). It may help by finding a dose that controls the cancer while keeping side effects acceptable.
